Olympic organisers have banned spectators from the Tokyo Games, as Japan extends its Covid-19 state of emergency in the host city.
The Games begin on 23 July, and already hundreds of athletes and officials from across the globe have arrived in Tokyo.
Olympic shot putter Tom Walsh won bronze at the 2016 Rio Olympics.
He is competing in Europe ahead of the Games, and says while it's disappointing there'll be no crowds, he backs the decision.
He spoke to Corin Dann.
